Sharp’s Brewery, lead sponsor of Padstow Christmas Festival, will be delivering a host of sparkling activities to help celebrate the event's 10 year anniversary this weekend.

Having supported the festival since its inception, Sharp’s Brewery, located just across the estuary in Rock, will once again be serving up their award-winning beers and popular beer-led activities on the town's picturesque harbour.

Visitors will not just get the chance to sample the latest brews and buy gifts at the Sharp’s Bar, but they'll be able to put their beer knowledge to the test with ‘Beer Bingo’ on the Festival Stage.
